Plug flow design

For first order irreversible reaetion at eonstant density A —> produets, (-r ) = kC, the plug flow design equation is... 

For continuous reactors, plug-flow designs require smaller volumes and hence smaller inventories than mixed-flow designs for the same conversion, as discussed in Chapter 5.

Before proceeding to Chapter 3, some terms and equations commonly used in reaction engineering need to be defined. We also consider the special case of the plug-flow design equation when the volumetric flow rate is constant.

The reaction occurs via a first order free radical chain mechanism. The crack reaction temperature is 500-550 °C, the pressure is mostly kept at 2.0-3.0 MPa. The crack furnace is of plug-flow design with tubes being placed in the convection zone of the furnace, which is equipped with a burner.
